The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Suffolk we are discovering an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from motorists not being totally sure how to work with it (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. In case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it asap. And absolutely do not turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would most likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Call us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will attend to all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Haughley - Wrong Fuel in Car Haughley

I'd had a terrific day fishing on my afternoon off and was feeling pleased the next morning as I set off to assist a new family who were holidaying in Haughley. They'd conked out after inserting petrol into their dark green Jeep Wrangler, and the car was around half an hour away. I turned up at their car and smirked while I listened to the lady chastising her hubby for turning out to be so daft. "How could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to tell her that this takes place all the time in Suffolk and that it's nothing at all to stress about, however he all the same got his ear bent. I felt sorry for the guy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some right fuel. As they drove off I shouted so long and wondered what her indoors would do to me if ever I made the very same blunder... I would never live it down!

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
    • A lot of smoke (more than usual)
    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VA receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
